When you become an EarthDance Farmhand, you join a community of people teaching regenerative agriculture, growing healthy food for marginalized people, and being voices for change in a fragile food system.

When you join EarthDance Farmhands:

• You provide organic farming and gardening education for our Spring Trainees, including scholarships for low-income participants, equipping all with the essential life skill of growing food.
• You support the farm team in not only growing an abundance of highly nutritious food, but also distributing it to people and organizations in need.
• You help us connect youth to the source of healthy food on the farm and in the community through our Farm to School program in partnership with Ferguson-Florissant School District, empowering them with tools to lead healthier, more resilient lives.
• You enable us to act on behalf of and in alignment with nature, building healthy soil and stewarding a historic organic farm for generations to come.
• You support EarthDance’s new Pay What You Can Farm Stand

Because we believe that everyone’s participation is essential to creating a healthy food system for all, we have created multiple levels for you to join at — choose what works for you!
